Beefy stetson hat workout. Ravishing harp and fun fender deluxe reverb tones.

Not unheard of to go into this after scarlet fire (34 times) still, something of a wacky pranksterish reset. Speedy and powerful version with growl.

Devils come alive. Joy ride to wirepickin' ecstatic oblivion. Furiously active yet not autobahn, deep 80s

Great one. Kits duet is really inspired. Space curdles out with noise but gets jester's hat nightmare with vocal pranks. Beautiful long bluesy intro

version like a flame for the caveman... Yet another enigmatic hunter banger yet also shares something with the spirit of unabashed rockers like passenger and hell in a bucket. Not for the faint of heart, like the uncle john's before it the shackles of form are hurled through the roof to new spheres of sonic memory, the portraiture of vibrating space.

that acoustic tone, powerful stuff.... Piercing and immediate, closer to wolf or the beane? Smorgasboard of drooling melodious fractal americana goodness for ujb junkies. Like the best 77 sugarees this thing just. keeps. growin and glowin.... Wow. Hard hat inhaler

one of the best i've heard, buckle up. Can't recall a faster one and it's got a super heavy distorted vibe to boot, bruce slaps it. This one is stratospheric.
